new theory for the big bang,give me your input please?

Think of the way an atom works....now think of the way the universe works,sort of just a bigger scale from the smallest to the biggest.now on the big bang theory I would imagine all things are relative(imagine).if you bouce a ball..and right at the moment it's going away from you,you would think that it would just continue that way forever.(except that time is quicker and you know of gravity)we don't on the otherhand now all there is to the universe.so suppose there wasn't one big bang.instead a contstant big bang,only not as quick as our known timeframe.perhaps a bouncing ball.expanding universe, hits the peak,contracting universe.....etc

Okay smartie pants, it has been awhile since I have recruted your help,I need a quadratic problem help please?

okay, basic stuff:
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 and the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac.

Okay so far? Kewl

I need to "play" with these numbers and come up with a positive, zero and a negative. Then, graph the corresponding equation and give examples of how they are used in the real world.

I am thinking a spring as in a shock absorber for a car for a negative?

no idea for any of the others....

Can you point me in the right direction? Please.

(you don't have to do the math, just give me an idea for real every day uses. Or where I can find these examples. It is my homework and I would like to do it on my own, just completely lost here, so looking for a little help)
